Random lunch stop and Boulders

A timed run from Christchurch to Dunedin.

Why?











On our way to the first of England's group games of which the first 3 are in Dunedin, this is great for us as we will be able to visit and see the bottom half of New Zealand's South Island over 14 days, not going to rush this at all.
Left early out of Christchurch with GPS taking in a horse shoe shape route around Christchurch, I got the feeling that we were going totally the wrong direction, "have faith in the GPS," Jeannette comments.

Views terrific finding words is getting harder to describe the scenery, the roads are very quite, I will probably be repeating my self here.
Next a place to eat, choices not so many choices on the open roads, a few cafe's, bars, Taverns and restaurants though the towns we passed, while driving I saw a sign for Moeraki Boulders Cafe & Bar in 2k. We decided to stop well what a bonus it was, the cafe is situated about .5k off the main road drive down to a car park that can take camper vans, couple of coaches and cars. nicely laid out cafe plus a gift shop.
On entering the cafe the first thing that hits you is the Daily Specials written on a Hugh roll of brown wrapping paper hanging from the ceiling, next attack on my senses is the fantastic sea views, they have an outside eating deck just in the right place.
Then I notice pictures on the walls, I called Jeannette over and said "We have picked without realising it a famous place to see,"
The cafe is situated right above the 60 million year old "Moeraki Boulders" what a treat, they're amazing!















Or as one traveller put are they Egg shells of sea-born dragons?

Rather than give you the history just look and wonder.








You have to be here.

Look carefully the earth is giving birth to another Boulder
